Do the sentence 1 mean as same as sentence 2?

Does [STRIKE]the[/STRIKE] sentence 1 mean [STRIKE]as[/STRIKE] the same as sentence 2?

1."Junior nurses usually work alongside more senior nurses.(Original sentence)"


2.Junior nurses usually work with more senior nurses.

They could mean the same, but#1 stresses that they work in very close proximity, doing the work together. This is not necessarily so with #1.

#2 could be used of situation in which junior nurses are working on a project which they discuss with more senior nurses at regular intervals; #1 could not be used of that.

May I ask a question here?
Could the words in blue be 'junior nurses'?
